I am very interested in purchase this accesory: http://store.freeflysystems.com/col...y/products/movi-m10-quick-release-pan-knuckle But i want to know if it is easy to install or any others comments or advices. I have the same issue of this post: http://forum.freeflysystems.com/index.php?threads/m10-roll-bar-listing-issue-while-panning-rig.4951/ And i think that this accesory could help me. Regards. Jair.
I installed a new one with the old screws fastener, and it's quite easy to do. Just have a look at the fasteners down the pan drop tube (where the computer sits) all you have to do is undo those and replace.
If you're planning on upgrading to the M15, you may not want to buy the tool-less pan knuckle piece. From what I've seen, the M15 has 2 parallel tubes running from the pan motor to the vertical tube that holds the MoVI computers (IMU) so I doubt the piece would work on the M15. Also, the M15 already has a tool-less pan adjustment piece on it. Knowing when the M15 upgrade will be available would help your decision also...
Thank you for all your comments guys, but i don´t want to upgrade my M10 soon. I think first, i need to be a master of the M10. After this, i will think about a possible M15 upgrade. But the tool less Pan Knuckle i think is a excellent accesory. I will go for it, Regards.
I installed this the day it became available. It's been obviously fantastic for quick balancing, but has also been good for packing the movi back into it's case..as the foam is a snug fit.. Now it's easier to un-clamp and shuffle into place.
Roger: you will probably get a quicker response if you email to support@freeflysystems.com. That said, I did a Google search for you and Adorama appears to have them in stock: http://www.adorama.com/FRPKNM10.html Andy.
